<p>Way back in my day I had serious back issues so I tried a chiropractor for a few weeks until he severely hurt me. A few days later I told him that his "adjustment" did more damage than good but he was too busy flirting with some female patient and did it to me again. I was done with that crap. Later I discovered that I had a compressed L4 L5 and no amount of cracking is going to fix that.</p>

<p>1) Most chiropractors (subluxationists) are despicable charalatans pretending to have some knowledge of medicine. The few good ones (non-subluxationists) are no more effective than massage therapists.</p>
<p>2) I would NEVER go to a chiropractor.</p>
<p>3) Not I; but my father did. He went to one for a couple of years before discovering, too late, what his REAL ailment was. As a consequence, he died at age 52. As far as I’m concerned, his chiropractor should be in prison.</p>

<p>4) People - Americans particularly - will believe ANYTHING, especially if it’s advertised on TV.</p>

<p>2. nope.....see 1 above</p>
<p>3. no, but I did try it once. it was an incredibly creepy experience that I hope to never repeat.</p>
<p>4. most people are just not that smart. it's sad but true. </p>
<p>5. im guessing it's because they don't actually kill people</p>
<p>6. does'nt it bug the shit out of you when a chiropractor tries to have people address them as "Dr. -"?? it's insulting to actual doctors!</p>
